Frederick Forsyth combines being readable and pacey with brilliant plotting and narrative detail. If you’re trying to get back into reading fiction, The Day of The Jackal is a good place to start. Used to read a lot on the train commute into London. Much less so under wfh regime.

Thanks @tomlewiscambridge.bsky.social and @willhumphrey.bsky.social. In my late teens I had a sudden deep conviction that because fiction was make believe, it somehow meant less. It's ridiculous, I know, but it's become a 35+ year habit. I need something to break the spell.

Andy - that's fighting talk to a linguist like me. If you're looking for baby steps of how to get back into novels, try a few more-theatrical films first - Amadeus, 12 Angry Men, Glengarry Glen Ross, One Flew Over The Cuckoo's Nest, Another Country.

Also, if you want something easy which is funny - Bob Mortimer's are all hilarious.

I love ALL of those films. Glengarry Glen Ross is one of my all time favourites.
